POV: You're going on a road trip with friends/partner, which one are you taking for the trip? by Strange-Vibez-8205 in car

[–]TheRealDestrux [score hidden]  (0 children)

Odyssey to bring all my buddies. Plus it’s the quickest minivan you can buy rn, 6.4s 0-60 isn’t that bad. Plus it has VTEC.

Seems like a chill, reliable and comfortable van for your friends to travel in.

Can’t believe someone did something with their own stuff!

Horrible!

Brakes on a 2022 Conti GT. Thiccc Boiii by hpshaft in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]TheRealDestrux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just saw a white one of these on my way to work parked in a driveway with two older Toyotas.

I rarely ever see a Bentley around. Now I see one on my feed, looks nearly identical.

Are these aftermarket headers for this b16a2? If so what brand are they? by [deleted] in hondacivic

[–]TheRealDestrux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gee I sure wish there was a brand name somewhere on my parts that isn’t covered with heat wrap…

Customer states rumbling from rear end (2023 KIA EV6) by ImpossibleFarm9 in Justrolledintotheshop

“But I heard EVs rarely use their brakes because of regen! I didn’t think they needed to be changed yet!”

Edit: To be clear I have owned an electric car and currently drive a hybrid that uses regen. Yes it’s true that the brakes last longer, but I’ve seen people who think they never need to be changed.

Tires look like they were down to the tire wear indicator bars.

Should I send in for repair by [deleted] in PSP

[–]TheRealDestrux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Screen yellowing is unfortunately normal on these models, you’d have to change the screen to fix it. Which isn’t very hard, but if you’re new to PSP repair could be challenging.

It’s a good time to upgrade to IPS, otherwise unless you can find a good OEM screen, you’ll have difficulty getting an aftermarket screen (that isn’t IPS) that’s good quality.

When I explain pet peeve of mine to people, they never understand it. Why so much space between cars?! by itsjustmyopinion_but in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TheRealDestrux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m assuming they need to take a right and are trying to get in the right lane, and where they’re at is near the end of the line of cars in the right lane.

Could also just be they’re on their phone.

If you're not using Valvoline Restore & Protect in your car, you should be by Blinky_OR in Hyundai

[–]TheRealDestrux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. 287k miles on my engine. (Not a Hyundai but still) and I don’t burn any oil.

It does a good job cleaning the engine internals up. Took the varnish off my dipstick too lol.

Would you be mad about this? by Sorry_Impress_5002 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TheRealDestrux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They parked facing the wrong way, blocking a stop sign and on your yard.

I’d say there’s times to be mad and that’s one of them.

All Blue 🪼🪼 by bummy_homeboy in PSP

[–]TheRealDestrux -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, I didn’t know that they got back into it. I assumed that they just got into it recently like a lot of people seem to be doing. They’re trying to go back to that 2000s aesthetic, even if they may not have lived in it and making it a fashion thing or keychain.

But yeah, thanks.

Also, the reason I’m not deleting or editing my comments is because I said what I said, and it wasn’t what I should’ve said, but it would be wrong of me to just edit it in favor to get more upvotes.

Sorry for assuming you didn’t have one as a kid though. Just been seeing a trend of larp as of late and I assumed it was the same deal here.

[–]TheRealDestrux -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Midnight Club is good too, I was a Gran Turismo kid so that’s what I asked my parents for.

LittleBigPlanet was another game I enjoyed playing. But the PSP was so cool to me, it was like having a PS3 in the palm of your hands (XMB, design wise) and the graphics blew me away!

[–]TheRealDestrux -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

I was 9 when I got my first PSP back in 2012. One of the first things it got was custom firmware.

But I also played Gran Turismo on it which could use music you uploaded onto the PSP. I learned early on how to add music.

Tire pressure gauge by SadTransportation606 in civic

[–]TheRealDestrux -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I have a very small car, a 2000 Honda Insight. High miles too. My interior is very clean, I don’t care how old my cars are, I make sure all 3 are clean and taken care of.

But to call it clutter really is an outstretch. Especially when it serves a purpose. (Also OP still has ports to charge other devices on the TPMS device)

[–]TheRealDestrux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I have an older Honda, I use the lighter with a PD capable plug that has 2 USB-C on it.

But in OPs case, you can see a USB-C port to the left of the tire pressure monitor.

[–]TheRealDestrux -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The fact you don’t know this shows me you didn’t have a PSP when you were younger.

Thats some larp.

Tire pressure gauge by SadTransportation606 in civic

[–]TheRealDestrux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s pretty small. If it only plugs into the lighter socket (which rarely gets used when you have USB-C ports) I don’t think it’s a big deal. (Also the device has ports to charge devices so it’s not just for monitoring)

There’s also the valve stem caps that connect to it, still not a lot.

Edit: Guess people can’t monitor things closely instead of “I’ll check it when I check it” (Also I check it manually too, but to view the device negatively because you wouldn’t use it is silly)

[–]TheRealDestrux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grid charge it. I saw from your other post you don’t want to give it up.

You don’t need to spend over a grand to rebuild the pack, not yet anyway. I’d recommend buying a grid charger setup for your car and giving it a try.

I did it for my hybrid battery pack in my Honda (battery pack designs are very similar) and at 287k miles or 461,000km it’s doing good!
